| - I was skeptical at first when I saw the pictures but this is honestly a great bubble tea place. I shamelessly call myself a bubble tea addict and connoisseur. Being Taiwanese and a New Yorker, I can be pretty snobby and picky about where I go to satisfy my bubble tea cravings which strike me on a weekly and sometimes daily basis. I am also a picky tea drinker so I am also extra harsh on the types of tea used to create the drink.
First and foremost: the boba/bubbles/pearls
Excellent preparation, cooked to the right degree of chewiness, not mushy, no hard center. Also, longan honey is a special type of honey with the floral notes not found in your typical clover honey. Definitely reminded me of Taiwan with those subtle flavors.
Second: the drink.
I ordered my usual favorite when not going classic with milk tea: mango green tea, no ice, no sugar. (Well, in this case, shaken with ice with ice removed). I have to give them a two-thumbs up. If you are familiar with the TenRen brand and their bubble teas, this place will remind you of them. Good quality tea was used along with good quality syrup. None of that powdered nonsense. When paired with the delicious bubbles, I'm satisfied. No complaints. My fiancée had gotten the coconut milk tea as per his usual favorite with "default" everything. Even at 100% sugar levels, it wasn't overwhelmingly sweet like places such as KungFu Tea. It's sweetness level at 100% reminded me of CoCo.
This place will definitely be my go-to place from now on when I am visiting Vegas unless I come across an even better place in the future. I have tried a number of different places already and I must say, this one is the best so far.
Now why did I give four stars instead of five? Two reasons.
1.) My fiancé was excited to order Taiwanese popcorn chicken. Ever since I introduced them to him back in NYC, he's been hooked. Unfortunately, when we went today, they were sold out of chicken. So he couldn't have any and his parents weren't able to try any of the amazing chicken they heard us raving about. (They ended up getting KFC for dinner in place of it.)
2.) The bubble tea mixologist was out of the building and stuck in some traffic so we had to wait some time before they returned to make our drinks. Thankfully there was connect four to help us pass the time but this shouldn't happen as it was past 6:30pm.
